MAX10 FPGA on-chip memory size question

Hi, 

in the datasheet of the MAX10 FPGA type10M50DAF484C8GES I read that the on-chip memory has a size of 1,677,312 kbits. 

This means a size of more than 209 MBye. This seems to be extremely large. 

Is this correct? 

 

Second question: 

I want to devide this on-chip memory into 24 FIFOs of 2 MByte, 12 bit wide. 

Can I do this? 

 

Thank you. 

Regards.

For a 10M50 my datasheet says M9K memory (Kb = Kbytes?) is 1638. I take this as 1638 x 1024 =1677312 bits. So ... 1677312/1024= ~1638 KBytes ~= 1.6 MB.

MAx 10 never own such huge capacity of memory for that cost... else the cyclone V and Arria 10 can retire already...

and max 10 implementation need to be careful as you can easily used up those spaces.

BMW 

it is in bits not kbits so: 1,677,312 bits == 205KBytes of memory.

Hi,somewhere I read about 1,677,312 kbits.I can not find it anymore. But I was suspicious about this huge amount ! 

Thanks for making it clear.!
